Days Like This
It's days like this
I question my sanity
I long for relief
From all my strife and grief
Why can't I breathe
My distress smothers me
Hoping for peace
I search for a release
Still I'm trying
To find my fire inside
Once it burned
Brighter than the sun
The embers long dead
Can they ever reignite
I question my sanity
I long for relief
From all my strife and grief
Why can't I breathe
My distress smothers me
Hoping for peace
I search for a release
Still I'm trying
To find my fire inside
Once it burned
Brighter than the sun
The embers long dead
Can they ever reignite

The Wound
This is such a cruel game you play
The way you give and take your love recklessly
Your actions and motives are so unclear
You give no thought to the consequences
Youve broken and mended my heart many times
Now Im afraid its different than before
This gaping wound is too deep and jagged
Its bleeding the life and soul out of me
Now I lie alone on the cold hard floor
Waiting for all this pain to fade away
Pleading for deaths sweet embrace
Im finally free from your hold over me
The way you give and take your love recklessly
Your actions and motives are so unclear
You give no thought to the consequences
Youve broken and mended my heart many times
Now Im afraid its different than before
This gaping wound is too deep and jagged
Its bleeding the life and soul out of me
Now I lie alone on the cold hard floor
Waiting for all this pain to fade away
Pleading for deaths sweet embrace
Im finally free from your hold over me

Lost
I feel so lost and confused. So unsure of where to go or what to do next. Like a puppy who strayed too far from home while chasing after pretty butterflies. Lost deep in the forest on a strange, dark path. I dont know if Ill ever find my way back this time. It seems the bread crumb trail, meant to lead me to the start again, has been eaten away by all the woodland creatures who relish in the chance to feast on my hopes and dreams. If I ever made it back to my former self, Im afraid my heart and soul have long been burnt to the ground. Ashes and a few dim embers are all that remains after the...

Love/Hate
This love/hate relationship has broken my mind
It tears through me like a knife
Then heals me again with a touch so kind
My heart has never felt so much strife
At first I feel I need you so much
But poisonous words resonate from our voices
Then once again Im in heartache's clutch
Sometimes I wonder if Im making the right choices
Its an uphill battle that Im ready to face
Just hope this fight isnt more than I can take
My soul has already begun its fall from grace
Only a matter of time before I completely break
It tears through me like a knife
Then heals me again with a touch so kind
My heart has never felt so much strife
At first I feel I need you so much
But poisonous words resonate from our voices
Then once again Im in heartache's clutch
Sometimes I wonder if Im making the right choices
Its an uphill battle that Im ready to face
Just hope this fight isnt more than I can take
My soul has already begun its fall from grace
Only a matter of time before I completely break

Drown
Sleepless nights plague me
My mind is restless and frightful
These wicked thoughts haunt my existence
Will there be an end? Can I be forgiven?
Twisted and torn. I dont understand what Ive become
I bury those around me with hurtful words and poisoned moments
I will bleed out this hate. I need to release
Take this pain and let me go
Im haunted by the shadows in my past
These bitter memories wear me out
I cant endure this any longer
Will you save me or let me drown?
I deserve to drown
My mind is restless and frightful
These wicked thoughts haunt my existence
Will there be an end? Can I be forgiven?
Twisted and torn. I dont understand what Ive become
I bury those around me with hurtful words and poisoned moments
I will bleed out this hate. I need to release
Take this pain and let me go
Im haunted by the shadows in my past
These bitter memories wear me out
I cant endure this any longer
Will you save me or let me drown?
I deserve to drown

Begging
Love has forsaken me once again
My hopeful words have fallen on deaf ears
Souless and broken hearted
My thoughts have become distorted
I cant discern the truth from the lies
All I can understand is this pain
I just want to be needed
Is that truly too much to ask?
Instead I was pushed out of favor
And left begging for a chance
They say that love is blind
With that I can surely agree
Because despite his ill temperment
At his feet, I still fall to my knees
My hopeful words have fallen on deaf ears
Souless and broken hearted
My thoughts have become distorted
I cant discern the truth from the lies
All I can understand is this pain
I just want to be needed
Is that truly too much to ask?
Instead I was pushed out of favor
And left begging for a chance
They say that love is blind
With that I can surely agree
Because despite his ill temperment
At his feet, I still fall to my knees

Worthless
Im falling helplessly through the flipping pages
I scream as my mind shatters into pieces
Im ashamed of what I am
Im overcome
Nothing but a worthless junkie
Stuck in the endless struggle
Hate fills me to my core
Im disgusted
Hell surrounds me in every direction
My demons pull me into the undertow
This worthless existence is too much
I beg and plead for an end
But when its over, where will I run?
I scream as my mind shatters into pieces
Im ashamed of what I am
Im overcome
Nothing but a worthless junkie
Stuck in the endless struggle
Hate fills me to my core
Im disgusted
Hell surrounds me in every direction
My demons pull me into the undertow
This worthless existence is too much
I beg and plead for an end
But when its over, where will I run?

The End
He told me I was perfect for him
But in the end, our outlook was grim
I cant help but feel like a fool
To think I could tame a man who breaks all rules
This pain in my chest will not subside
By his wishes I must abide
I dont want him to have to pretend
Still it hurts me to know this is the end
At first such sweet words were spoken
But now I find only promises broken
Once again I spiral down
To this darkened path I am bound
Sadness, frustration and anger fill my heart
I still cant truly grasp what has driven us apart
Now I...
